What is a Virtual Assistant for Writers?

A virtual assistant is a remote worker that performs different kinds of tasks for business owners that require support. Most entrepreneurs are very busy with daily activities and stop paying attention to other tasks that are crucial for the growth of their businesses. Writers are extremely busy people, who need to consider millions of details in order to make an impeccable job. It’s totally normal to seek support if you feel overwhelmed with these details, if this is your case, you should consider hiring a virtual assistant.

VAs are very organized and can help writers scale their business and increase productivity. Let’s analyze some of the tasks a VA can perform for writers.

Writing

If you need help in the writing process, a virtual assistant can support you in this process. You can delegate writing pieces to your virtual assistant and it will help you save anywhere from 10 hours-45 hours a week. During these hours you can invest work else in your business, giving you more space to grow and get closer to your goals.

Proofreading

Proofreading is the act of reading written work and marking any errors. Mistakes like spelling, grammar, and punctuation are completely normal when writing but fixing them can take hours and also make the writer feel frustrated. If you are a writer we recommend you not to be in charge of proofreading because it can decrease your creativity and delay your writing process. 

Instead of doing this yourself, a virtual assistant for writers can manage all your proofreading for you, making sure your writing is always perfect and ready to be published. 

Publishing Content

The most important step in your writing process is publishing your content. Your writing pieces deserve to see the light and be published somewhere where they’ll get good traffic. Virtual assistants are known for their experience with SEO and different publishing tools, they are the perfect person to be in charge of the last part of your writing process. 

SEO

If you have your own blog, you need to make sure the right people are finding you, and search engines will make this possible. If you want to have a successful page, we recommend you put your SEO strategy in the hands of experts.
